MPI Country Briefings 2019

These briefings present country-specific results of the Global MPI analysis of 103 developing nations, illustrated with graphs, maps and charts.

Each country profile includes comparisons of the MPI with other poverty measures, breakdowns by deprivation indicators and urban/rural areas, and a look at the average intensity of poverty across the poor. Of the countries analysed, more than 80 also have data on poverty at the sub-national level, covering more than 1000 regions, and 50 have data on how multidimensional poverty has changed over time.

This Databank presents the results of the Global Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) and explains key findings graphically. For an explanation of the MPI, along with more information, international comparisons and details of the resources available, please click here.
